Jim, I have rebuilt the ribcase in both my cars with good results and no
prior LBC experience.  I believe a smmothcase with it's "shrunk on"
syncros may be more difficult, but then a ribcase will fit right in so
why bother unless originality is at stake.  I think most people with
some mechanical abilities, a good service manual and some patience would
be surprised at how easy it can be.

Paul, and others:
My question: do many listers here do their own transmission work?  When
I spoke of this at my car club meeting, people seemed surprised that an
amateur mechanic would tackle a job like this.  (Maybe they were
surprised that I was able to do it?)
